A rabid bat was found lying on the sidewalk at Â鶹AV’s Roddick

Rabies is a viral infection that can be transmitted by the bite of
an infected animal. In the case of a bat, this bite can be very
small and may go unnoticed.
Therefore, if you touched or manipulated this bat or were scratched
by or bitten by it, please call Info-Santé at 811 or the Â鶹AV
Student Health Services at (514) 398-6017 to discuss the need to
receive a preventive treatment against rabies.
